A day in the life of a chicken

From left to right:  Nefi, Freyja, Ellie and Una

The chicks survived there first night outside and have survived many since in the 'Cozy Coop'.......

I wake up when light shines through the big blue thing the treat girl covers our house with. My sisters wake up with me and we jump of the roost drink some water and wait for the treat girl. Today she gets here early and give us some food. We eat quickly and jump out of our house into the big world.  We jump out of the coop we flap are wing and fly into the air. Then, Suddenly, I hear something behind me, I whirl around and see my sister behind me challenging my position in the pecking order I stick my head up tall and fluff up my feathers while giving her a little peck on the head, not today I tell her.  After we finish our daily pecking order fights we run off to go see what treats we can find in the big world today. We first check in the forest than run to the big rock. Scary monsters zoom past on that big stretch of dirt.  We hear the treat girl calling and run/fly to the back. She gives us yummy black treats. The bigger hens come we run away. Tired after our adventuring we find a nice place to rest for a bit.  We peck around some more but are full and kinda bored. We decide to fly to the top of the big blue mountain (deck)  We jump to the first level and then fly or hop to the top. Then we spy on the treat girl through the big clear doors. The treat girl gets scary when she sees us and chases us off the mountain.
We drink some water and look around it is starting to get dark. What should we do?  Then the treat girl comes with food and chase her back to our house eat some food drink some water and jump up onto the perch it takes a few tries and we sometimes get knocked off! But we are finally all in the right order. The treat girl puts the big blue thing down and we fall asleep......................................
